    Matt, did you get any pics of the Capistrano Reef tank in the back of the building? It was the 210g walk around peninsula display.

    Great pictures, thank you. The show was fun, and I got to see a lot of great products. The display tanks were certainly amazing; being a hobbyist, it always amazes me the work that goes into these show stoppers in such a small amount of time.

    Yep and claimed the $1000 prize. Coral Gazers tank wasn't bad either.

    Hey do you happen to have ANY info at all on that cool little freshwater tank with the driftwood/java moss that looked like a bonsai tree? that little tank was pretty cool and I could see myself being able to do something neat with it

    Also that oval tank at the wave-point booth was SICK!!
